ahd Damages . Bark.
A party Of Brooklyn gentlemen started
down the bay yesterday on the tug William j.
McCaldin to see the yacht race. They were
little behind time. for when they got to the
Narrows they met the excursion boats coming
home and learned that the race had
been postponed. The Captain Of the tug.
however. concluded to 60 out for a sail. and
on the way passed three United States ships.
the Saratoga, the Portsmouth. and the James,
town. The captain, with an eye to business.
asked them II they wanted a tow In, and got no
for an answer. On tho way back the McColdin
ran across these ships again. Two tugs were
there. and when the McColden came along
whisted for her.
The McCaldin hooked on to the jamestown
and brought her up into the North River The
steering on the jamestown was pretty bad for
when Just above Twenty-third street there
was a coal schooner anchor. The tug passed
II all right, but the jamestown sweryed and
her yards whipped down the schooner's masts.
The tugs hawser was at once cast on. In a
but there was no need OF IL.
Anchored further out In the stream was the
bark Hudson, and although the jamestown
could have passed her clear by judicious steer
ing. she ran into her bow. breaking off the jib-
boom and seriously damaging her. Then tho
jamestown swung around alongside OF the
bark, and 1t took the tug two hours to get her
free and to her anchorage ground. The cap
tain OF the jamestown admitted to the tugs
captain that he did not see the schooner's
lights until close upon her.

of England, are relations Of the Queen. They
are in medium circumstances. without fortune
and dependent upon their own exertions for
support. The Government secs that they do
